Re: [fw1-gurus] r55 upgrade

cpstop is effective only the device you are running it on.  So the only 
affect that you will have by running cpstop on the management station is 
that the enforcement module will stop logging to the management station 
and start logging to itself.  It should re-establish logging to your 
management station once it is up and active again, however I've seen 
where sometimes it takes a policy push to get this going again.
